male chauvinist

–noun
a male who patronizes, disparages, or otherwise denigrates females in the belief that they are inferior to males and thus deserving of less than equal treatment or benefit.

I am a woman, not a girl
I have the same eyes, I see the same world

I am a woman, not a girl
I have breasts, I have curves

I am a woman, not a girl
I have intelligence, I have confidence

I am a woman, not a man
They preach subservience, to fall before their hand

I am a woman, not a man
They proclaim superiority, crave to control

I am a woman, not a man
They say I have no ability; I cannot do what they can

I am a woman, not a girl
I have aspirations, I have strengths

I am a woman, not a girl
I have to think before I act, I stop before I do

I am a woman, not a girl
I have cares, I have worries

I am a woman, not a man
Fated to be slighted for what I am

I am a woman, not a man
Meant to bear children and keep a house

I am a woman, not a man
I do not have a right to think or be

I am a woman, not a man
I must sit behind, never stand

I am a woman, not a man
I have the right to do and be what I am

I am a woman, not a man

And I can do every fucking thing they can.
